January 2, 2009 · Filed Under celebrities · 1 Comment 

Start the year with some hotness.

Carlene Aguilar

Supermodel and beauty queen (Miss Earth, if i remember it right), Carlene Aguilar exudes the “hot” in the cover of FHM’s January 2009 edition. The sexy mom looks fierce in her striped bikini, and inside a half full aquarium (without the fishes though).

Carlene became a household name after getting linked with actor Dennis Trillo with whom she has a son. She somehow entered showbiz via an ABS-CBN dance show program, then moved to GMA 7 via Celebrity Duets. She will soon be seen in the kapuso network’s latest teleserye offering, Ang Babaeng Hinugot sa Tadyang (starring Dingdong Dantes and Marian Rivera).

Text Celebrity Duets

August 30, 2008 · Filed Under celebrities, music, tv · Comment 

It’s Celebrity Duets’ second week and this time around, fans can now vote for the “deserving” celebrity performer! The general voting procedure’s for people to text DUETS Name of Celebrity… and then send to 361 for Smart and TalknText, or, 2344 for Globe subscribers.

Here’s a rundown of what happened in tonight’s show…

Supermodel Melanie Marquez seductively sang “Fever” with the equally seductive Vernie Varga. Tessa Prieto even said it was “sizzling hot!” To vote for her, text DUETS MELANIE.

Chef JL sang “Yakap sa Dilim” with Agot Isidro. We think he dragged Agot to the pit, and we agree with Mr. Freddie when he said “everything was better last week”. To vote for him, text DUETS CHEF.

Metro Gwapo Bayani Fernando sang “Miss My Lovin’” (waaah, not sure about the title, lol) with Nonoy Zuniga, and he made Danny Tan say he has one of the best vocals in the competition, very stable”… Just a sidenote, he’s got a lot of banners this early in the competition… Media mileage, early campaign for 2010, maybe? Hehehe.To vote for Bayani, text DUETS BF.

Phil Younghusband sang “Never Let it Slip Away” with Jay-R, and judge Tessa’s smitten. Even Mr. Freddie saif he’s a hundred percent better this time around. We think they’re exaggerating, though… and that the guy needs more than just cuteness to win. To vote for him, text DUETS PHIL.

Beauty queen Carlene Aguilar blended really well with Acel Santos. We just missed the title of the song, but it was this one song from that one girl from youtube did. To vote for her, text DUETS CARLENE.

Fashion Designer JC Buendia had a broadway performance with Jinky Vidal (oops, dont know the title) … and we find it funny when Mr. Freddie said that what he did was courageous, very brave, and worthy of a national heroes holiday.. hahaha. comedy!!! Cause yeah, he took a really hard song, and well, let’s just see the results next week if the others liked his performance. To vote for him, text DUETS JC.

Cory Quirino sang “Bailamos” with Renz Verano… and though she’s much, much better last week, she has till proven herself to be a super bailamos this week. She’s the one we’re looking forward to seeing the most! To vote for her, text DUETS CORY.

Then, last, was tsong Joey Marquez who sang “Bababaero” with orig-singer Randy Santiago… It’s the typical Joey performance.. To vote for manong Joey, text DUETS JOEY.

Next week, one of them’s gonna be eliminated! Who’s it gonna be? The power’s in your hands.

The hit celebrity singing competition from GMA kapuso network is back! Yes, the show that launched the career of Dr. Hayden Kho, which revealed that Dr. Calayan could sing, and which made Miss Tessa Prieto-Valdes a household name.

The second season of Celebrity Duets will start later today, Saturday (August 23). Same hosts, still Ogie Alcasid and Regine Velasquez. New set of judges though, including concert and theater director Freddie Santos, composer and arranger Danny Tan, and Celebrity Duets first grand winner Tessa Prieto-Valdes (fierce!).

So who’s gonna be in the competition?

Well, MMDA Chariman Bayani Fernando (part of the campaign?), fashion designer JC Buendia, actor Joey Marquez, supahmodel Melanie Marquez, Bb. Pilipinas Carlene Aguilar, wellness diva Cory Quirino, ka-Toque JL Cang, and Fil-British professional soccer player Phil Younghusband.

Hoping this would be as fun to watch as the first season. :)
